Day 293: played 18. Really pleased with it - started with 3 bogeys but managed to shoot +5. Hit the ball well overall, and had some really good short game shots.

Day 9 -  25 (9 May 25) Weekly shootout with the men’s group.  It was a very ‘meh kind of round - especially on the green - 36 total putting strokes taken, of that I had 5 3putts.  Granted the greens were iffy as they have been struggling with the heat and lack of rain.  Also my normal solid 8i was a chunk master - only iron misbehaving today.  Much to glean from today…still was fun competing in the shootout.

Day 2: worked on speed control via the ladder drill. First time trying this drill and it was much harder than I anticipated. Also worked on some greenside shots.

Happy Mother's Day! I did some work after some earlier lessons. Left side felt almost 100% fine.

    • @dennyjonesand I are planning to stay in the Poland, OH area Friday night.  If any want to get together for dinner and/or drinks let us know. We are not sure exactly where we will stay or what time we will get there but if we can hook up with any of you it would be fun.
    • Yes, this was a competition for local golf professionals, so I knew he was at minimum a pretty competent player.  I also asked what kind of shot he needed to play, if he had wanted to go steeply down it could have altered my thinking.  But he needed a pretty level angle of attack to get the ball up, and have it stop near the hole.  Given those factors, and the depth of the grate below the ball, there really was no possibility that the grate would interfere with his swing.
